Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds

So after the funk from last week, which was brought on mostly by being dragged back, somewhat unwillingly, into the mess with my ex, I'm feeling much, much better. In fact, I'm feeling great now that I've said goodbye to that mess (yet again, and hopefully for the last time). I'm so ready to move on with life and feeling so good about dumping all that negativity out of it. If all goes to plan, the divorce will be finalized in March and then I can completely and totally put all of it out of my mind for good. It is a relief to have the end in sight.

The last three and a half weeks I've been back to serious weight watching and it's paid off in spades. I've lost every week, for a total of 6.5 pounds over that timeframe. Kicking ass (my own) and taking names.

At work, I'm doing some great stuff. I am totally making sql programming my bitch. I'm wrapping up headache projects that I've been avoiding. Feels good to be productive, appreciated and intelligent. Class is going pretty well too. I got an A on my first paper and just started on the second one. Hope to have that mostly written by next week.

At home, it's all so good. I am really enjoying the time with the kidlet since I don't have my life consumed by all the old crap. We have been having SO much fun together and are really making new memories that I know will be good ones. It's good to feel like a good mom again.

All in all, life is good. Better than it's been in a very long time.
